NEW YORK (Reuters) - The dollar fell against the yen Tuesday but rose against the euro after U.S. consumer confidence to contract a minimum of 10 months, beating the appetite for risk.

U.S. consumer confidence fell in February to its lowest level since April 2009, to worsen the outlook on the labor market, a report showed on Tuesday.

This prompted the dollar to fall back 1.0 percent on the day at 90.22 yen at close of trading in New York. The yen tends to benefit from declines in risk appetite, as investors abandoned the operations financed with the Japanese currency.
